Where a car is purchased does not often play a role in the amount or rate of car insurance, according to State Farm. When insuring a person's vehicle, most insurance companies base the rate on the type of car that is driven, the person's driving record and where the car is driven. Some may also use factors such as the frequency of the driving, the person's age and the person's marital status. The amount of coverage and deductibles also plays a large part in the person's insurance. Some companies also used a person's credit to determine the rate.
